Howdy, PMCer's! How's everyone's weekend going so far? DinowCookie did an amazing job summarizing all things spring on PMC, so we're sharing her post if you didn't get the opportunity to read it! In addition to spring things, there are several other non-spring community events being hosted on the site. Cyprezz has also been hard at work behind the scenes revamping some stuffs. We hope everyone's found something to participate in this month!

WEBSITE UPDATESandroidCyprezz Launched an overhaul to our account and submission management systems! We hope you'll find everything easier and more pleasant to work with when it comes to managing your account, activities, and submissions.

New member account menu provides access to everything related to our account & site activities.

Submissionmanagement was revamped to clarify & streamline the process for every submission type and their various unique elements.

Better mobile support for submission management.

Back-endcode of submissions management, listing and display was refactored for developer sanity and for future submission add-ons and introduction of new content types.

Members that upload will see the many changes I'm not going to bother listing out here. :P

Look, I created a spring themed pixel art divider! ^ 😄 Remember the Community Pixel Project? PMC is still accepting new dividers. Spring might just be a perfect occasion to pick up the pixel pencil again; blossom 🌸 flowers 🌹 bunnies 🐰 eggs 🥚 Members could use them to Spring Fling their profile!

At the end of the Spring Fling event, my fellow hosts PMC, Cyprezz and I will pick a couple of spring-themed profiles to highlight in the event conclusion. ^_^ Please tag us, or leave a comment on the Spring Fling event discussion forum thread to show us your decorated profile! Need some inspiration? The profiles of TETQ, mcrjellyfish & StLee make great examples.

I decorated mine too! And made these photos of spring available for you to freely use when decorating your own profile.

About the Spring Fling event, I've seen a lot of people refer to it as a contest but please remember that it's a non-competitive event, which means that your entries will not be judged and no top-3 of winners will be chosen. You can enter any combination of skins, blogs and projects. Up to five entries per participant are allowed and you can team up as well! 😁

There already are a total of ﻿165 entries submitted into the event so far, and we still have 18 days to go! Do you have something planned? I'll be looking forward to what more is to come. These are some of my personal favorites so far:

P.S. Did you find Peepers yet? 😀 So far a total of 605 ﻿members had a successful egg-hunt! \o/ If you haven't found your Peeper(s) yet, I wish you good luck in finding them. You have until the end of April to spot these little cuties.
